Anyone who manages to have a spirit revealed or contained and we can all line up and see it will be an overnight millionaire.

Just doesn't happen does it, there's never any solid evidence just BS like Mother Mary appearing in some tree or statues oozing blood etc.

until aliens abduct me or a ghost comes up to me and taps me on the shoulder and introduces itself to me,i refuse to believe in them.
As for wind,i've climbed trees in 50 mph winds removing them as the top was breaking out of it,so yeah,wind exists.

Not bad on the poll though, sort of 50/50ish so many on both sides of the fence.

It's 13/13 now, a bad luck tie.

Hey, sort of on topic.

How we can smell fear... and why it's catching | Mail Online

That means, due to atmosphere, surroundings, beliefs, lighting etc you could be inducing your own ghosts.

Ive tipped the poll towards the believers as i believe. When i was young i used to live in a house that was haunted by a chap that died their. Burnt alive. One night some friends were talking to me on the door step. One of them looked up and went as white as a sheet running off down the road screaming. After catching up with her she had said that she saw a man standing at the top of the stairs with burn marks on him........

Maybe theres something i'm missing,the more i watch crap like the ghost hunters,the more i disbelieve,with all the crap they setup,it would be too easy to setup a couple of voice recorders,or hidden speakers that emit a custom track they made on a computer or even these entites they claim to get video evidence of.I believe in God,Jesus,angels and demons,and of course the devil,i've seen some weird shit too,just don't believe in ghost or ufos.

A guy on another forum told me he got called in to remove a large oak tree because the woman who owned it claimed it was haunted.Pity for the tree.I'll have to look it up again but i saw something where some scientists conducted a study and proved that your mind can actually play tricks on you and you will think its actually a ghost or something.So hows your wife and when is she due?

Ghosts do NOT exist, never have!

Are you soft!

All that exists is the figment of peoples imagination, people that have got bored with life as they know it. They then seek to elaborate on mythical beings entering and cohabiting their lives to spice it all up.

Jesus, now that's another subject, may have existed but the storyline got blown out of all proportion, just a good guy out there in a really bad world.

The world is still bad, not as bad as back then though because now we at least have proper trials and freedom of speech! Well, Nearly!

I can't necessarily prove that they DO exist, but unless you can prove that they DONT, then we're at a nice little impasse`

I prefer the term "spirit world" instead of "ghosts".

When I was 13 my best friend at the time shot himself in the head 3 times with a 357 in his mouth. Sounded kinda...creepy to me. He was into some wierd shit back then. Sacrificing animals in storm drains and stuff.

Maybe he was in no fit state to release the trigger after the first shot!

BWAHAHAHAHAHA...!!



And no, it was a Rossi 357 revolver. The investigation initially tried to pin it on his dad, but the kid was in a room padlocked from the inside. It was just freaky.
